"Hey guys." I said feeling my face heat up.

"Holy shit, they fucked you up." Zander said looking at my side and stomach area.

"Yeah, some of this is from the other day so they didn't do all of it."  said pointing to my side.

"Yes it is all from those asshole even if it happened on different days." Xavier said.

"Well yeah, but its not all from today." I said walking in to my closet and sliding on some pj pants and a t-shirt. I draped the towel over the back of the door before sitting down a the desk.

"Are you going to school tomorrow?" Zander asked.

"Yeah, I don't let shit like this stop me from doing stuff. The doctor said no work so your mom called my boss and told him I wouldn't be back until next week." I said.

"Mom like to do everything the doctor says so you better hope he said you could go to school." Xavier said laughing.

"He didn't say I couldn't but then again he didn't say much after your mom threatened to sue his ass either." I said laughing causing them to look at me like they wanted me to explain.

"He did a blood test and made the mistake on telling me it was a good think I was AIDS and HIV free because I could have infected someone." I said with a huff.

"Why they hell would you worry about something like that? If anything I would worry about Steve." Xavier said.

"It's because I'm gay." I mumbled.

"So what, a lot of people are gay and they don't have AIDS or HIV and there are a lot of straight people who have it." Zander said.

"Your mom told him he had to test Steve and his friends and give her the test resaults by next week or she is sueing his ass." I said laughing.

"She will to you never want to cross her." Zander said smiling at me.

"So how do you guys really feel about me being here?" I asked.

"What do you mean?" Xavier asked.

"Well, for one we don't really hang out like we did years ago. For two I am gay and not a lot of people like that or want to be around someone like me. And for three I am living in your home your parents are taking care of me. I for one don't like it because I have parent who should be doing it. But it is either let someone I know and trust take care of me or go into a forster home. I would rather be here but if you guys don't like it or if it is going to cause issues with you I will take my chances on a home." I said honestly.

"Wow you haven't changed a bit have you?" Xavier said laughing.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Well you were always the one who would come right out and ask or telling the honest truth no matter if you got in trouble." Zander said.

"I have never want to hid anything and I like to get all this out in the open so we have no issues in the future. You guys have always been my friend even if we run in different crowds and do different things. But I also know if we are seen together people will start to talk and I don't want to make your lives hell just because I live here." I said.

"Okay, we are friends and friends don't turn their backs on their friends. We may not have been really good friends these last couple years and for that we are sorry. We don't care if your gay or straight and our parents talked to us before they started to see how to get custody of you so we are fine with that. If our friend don't like you that their problem." Zander said.

"And we wouldn't let you go in to the system." Xavier said. 

"Thanks" I said just as my phone rang. Before I could get up to answer it Zander had. I listen to him hold a conversation with someone about the weather somewhere. After about five minutes he leaves the room with my phone.

"Don't worry it's just your brother." Xavier said.

"Oh okay, so are they going to talk secretly about me in the other room?" I asked with a chuckle.

"Yep pretty much." he said smiling at me.

"And I shouldn't be afraid?" I asked

"Maybe" he said laughing.

"He won't go through my phone will he?" I asked almost panicking. I had pictures of half naked guys on it.

"Why your boyfriends number in it?" He asked smiling an evil smile.

"I don't have boyfriend." I said shaking my head.

"Have you ever?" He asked.

"Nope"

"Any crushes"

"Maybe a few"

"Anyone I know"

"Maybe"

"Ever been kissed"

"Nope"

"No"

"Not until I find the one I want." I said looking over at him.

"That's good. You shouldn't give away something like that for just anyone or because everyone else it." He said looking a mix of happy and sad.

"You want to know what I think is funny? I think it's funny when people assume because I am gay that I will fuck or suck any guy that ask. But in reality I am looking for someone to just love me and to help me get over the whole touching thing. I hate to be touched and I think the one person who can break me of that will be my one." I said smiling.

"Why do you hate being touched?" He asked.

"The only people who has ever touched me in a none violent way is Benny and Max. Well your mom and dad hugged me today but I almost freaked. I know they are good people but I don't trust easy." I said.

"That''s sad" He said looking towards the door.

"Hey Benny said that your dad called him they made it about three hundred miles before stopping to get drunk your moms in jail after getting into a fight with him at the motel they rented and they need bond money. He's not giving it to them and told me to tell you not to do it either." Zander said.

"I wouldn't send them money any ways. They don't have my number so they would have to call your mom and dad and I don't think they would let me if I wanted to." I said shrugging my shoulders.

"Who pays you phone bill?" Zander asked.

"I do. The phone is in Benny's name but I pay the bill." I said.

"Benny said he would text you if anything else happens and told me to tell you to go to bed and get some rest." Zander said still holding my phone.

"Okay well let me know if he text." I said laughing.

"I will but for now you are going to bed because you like your dead on your feet. Plus you need your rest so you can heal. Tomorrow when you get home you should soak in the tub." He said it wasn't really a suggestion more like a command.

"Yes, sir." I said saluting him and laughing. 

Zander pulled the covers back on my bed and I climbed in like a good little boy. Xavier was trying not to laugh as he watched this all happen. I stuck my tongue out at him causing him to lose it. Zander didn't waver a bit as he tucked me in to bed. I was waiting or hoping for a kiss good night but didn't get it.

"Can you make sure to get me up in the morning if you are keeping my phone hostage." I asked.

"I am sure mom will be in to make sure you are well enough to go to school." Xavier said once he stopped laughing.

"I don't like missing school it's bad enough I can't work." I whined.

"Toughen up buttercup. Mom is on the job now so you are going to be mothered to death." Xavier said before going to the door. "Good night" He said waving before exiting. 

"I will let you know if Benny text anything important." Zander said before leaving the room himself.

This has been one fucked up night. Thank goodness for good meds because I think I would be freaking out about now. Zander had my phone, I was in a new place and my body was on fire from all the little contact it had with Zander as he tucked me in to bed. If I wasn't so comfy I would do something about a growing problem. But for now I think I will just get some sleep. As I drifted off I could hear the muffled voices of the twins some where outside my room.
